I figure, especially at just 16 lands, Benalish Marshal is gonna be somewhat unlikely to pull through for you in a 3-color deck without mana dorks. I think that at 19-20 lands you wouldn't really get flooded, and you might get a fourth land drop to put out an extra creature on turn 4, which is good tempo.

the deck might be more enjoyable if you cut white since you might need a slightly higher budget to make the mana base work for 3 colors, though Unclaimed Territory might be cheap could also keep an eye on Concealed Courtyard as cheapest you'll probably ever find them will be in the $2 range Inspiring Vantage too, course I guess all of these are in the 2-3 range atm

Hey, well constructed budget Commander deck. I'm confused though the main deck here is low budget, but the maybeboard is not? In fact the small amount of cards in the maybeboard are worth more than the entire main deck? If you want to play voltron consider a lot more equipments and cards that give bonuses to equipment? Voltron is a good secondary strategy with the main strategy of having many attack phases with Aurelia.

An alternative for the very expensive price Swords (Sword of Feast of Famine, Sword of Fire and Ice, etc) are the three less expensive price Kaldra equipments. Obviously these are not as good as the Swords, but they're still powerful equipments and can get all three for less than half the price of one Sword. When you get all three into play they can combine to make a 4/4 creature and attach all three Kaldra equipments to it.

Searing Blood and/or Searing Blaze are stronger removal than Path if you're looking to play the fast game. Skullcrack is also incredibly powerful, I'd play at least 2. I'd say cut 2 Path and all 4 Lightning strike for 4x your choice of Blood or Blaze (blood is my personal preference) and 2 Skullcrack.

I'm sure you're tired of people telling you to play better lands, especially if you're on a budget, but that would probably help the deck a lot. Go for the fetches (Arid Mesa) and shocks (Sacred Foundry) if you have the money for it. If not, you still have other options. Inspiring Vantage is relatively cheap and great in a fast deck like this. Clifftop Retreat is similarly good.
